Re: Action 712 (fast)

My rationale for the AA is that
* no browser is doing it currently (firebug extension is the only one I 
can think of)
* I don't see how it is a level 5 barrier - that it blocks people from 
information.  The information already isn't there, we are helping people 
to guess.  I would rate this as a level 3-4 barrier (according to our 
spreadsheet).

If we want UAWG to be accepted, we need to consider how many new level A 
SCs the browsers have to put into the feature development pipeline.  If 
we have too many, they ignore us, the way they did UAAG 1.0.

Please don't get me wrong, I think this is a great feature - 
particularly for photo web sites - but is this the feature we go to bat 
for and say, you MUST have this?  I'm open to that discussion, but that 
is why I said AA.

Implementing ATAG 2.0 even includes an Appendix that clearly connects the term to the requirements of WCAG (http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-IMPLEMENTING-ATAG20-20120410/#prompting-types).
